There are few companies such as Chartwell Auctions who combine true real estate knowledge together with specialized real esta ... te auction knowledge. This combination is what essentially leads to a retail price for property as opposed to a liquidated price obtainable by auction companies without a good real estate background. Our job in any case is to focus marketplace attention on the property while creating a competitive bidding environment to insure a maximum price for each asset offered. Our auctioneers share a combined 200+ years of real estate auction experience. The majority of our clients have been well-capitalized corporations, investment groups, financial institutions, and individuals. While their reasons for auction have varied, their objectives have been consistent: to maximize value on certain real estate holdings while at the same time specifically planning the actual time when those properties will be sold.
